Wooden Mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of them all?

'The Wooden Mirror' by Daniel Rozin is an incredible piece of both artistry and technology rolled into one.

A mirror made completely of wood, controlled by a camera and computer was made in 1999. The mechanical mirror was built in 1999 and the first of a few that he has built. It is a piece that explores the line between digital and physical.



Rozin has since used this technique to make other digital mirrors

2001 - Trash Mirror
2003 - Shiny Balls Mirror
2005 - Circles Mirror
2007- Peg Mirror (2007)
2007 - Weave Mirror, 2007

For more information on his many other pieces check out Daniel Rozin Interactive Art and make sure to check the 'Video Art' section and the piece called Easel... It is astounding what he has accomplished!! I love the interactivity of this artist and cannot wait to see more (There has already been 2 new pieces added to his page since I first began this blog)


The whole reason I was inspired to start this blog was to make a record of all the crap that I seem to find online... Anyway I was looking back to my 1st post and saw a reminder at the end of it!!

*Note to self* 'The Wooden Mirror'

Amazing... I had forgotten to write about the strange wooden mirror, but my blog has achieved it's goal, to remind me of the stacks of stuff I see and learn and manage to forget very quickly!! LOL!
